About the Business
Welcome to Minerva Pools Track, located in Wedderburn, Australia. This establishment is not just a park or point of interest, but a place of cultural significance and natural beauty. As you embark on the Minerva Pool walking track, you will be immersed in the traditional country of the Aboriginal Dharawal People, a rich heritage that deserves our utmost respect.
The journey begins with a short bushwalk, guiding you through the serene bushland of Dharawal National Park. Along the way, you will encounter stunning flora such as the Sydney golden wattle and mountain devil shrub, which hold great importance to the Dharawal People as sources of bush food and medicine. Keep your eyes peeled for the local wildlife, including swamp wallabies and yellow-tailed black cockatoos, who call this park their home.
As you approach the lookout, a breathtaking view of Minerva Pool awaits. This sacred women's place is a pristine waterhole adorned with magnificent sandstone features and a small stone island. Take a moment to unpack a picnic lunch and bask in the tranquility of the surroundings, as you witness the waterfall gracefully cascading into the rockpool below.
It is essential to approach Minerva Pool with reverence and mindfulness, as it is a site of great cultural significance to the Dharawal People. The Tharawal Local Aboriginal Land Council kindly requests that only women and children enter the waters of Minerva Pool, honoring the traditions and customs associated with this sacred place.

Reviews
"Awesome destination for a family fun day. Walking Trail is kids friendly and good for cycling as well. There is usable toilet available at the trailhead and enough parking spots."
"Beautiful place to go. Very serene, with a lot of nature. You have to climb over some rocks to get to the pools, and some may find it challenging. Check the National Park website before you go to see if it is opened to the public."
"Great walk to the lookout. Pretty easy but a fair with of up and down on the rocks. Stunning view."
"Good track and met a very friendly ranger on duty. The pathways had ample signage to get you from A to B and the scenery was a visual treat. The track had a grading of 3 for difficulty and I feel it would be easy enough to walk and enjoy a picnic at the end. There were some good spots to stop at the end and eat if you chose. The waters looked good to but I did not go in to respect the cultural significance of the area, especially for the Dharawal people."
